2025 has been one of the weaker years for the film industry as high-budget films like Captain America: Brave New World and Snow White have failed at both impressing the audience and at the box office.

If you’ve already streamed Deep Cover, you might want to rewind a moment. Prime Video’s latest British action-comedy Deep Cover delivers a unique blend of improv, crime, and satire. Interestingly, there’s a moment in the movie that The Lord of the Rings fans definitely won’t want to miss.
Yes, the two Lotr actors, Orlando Bloom and Sean Bean, have shared the screen again. While there is no mention of Middle-earth, elves, or the fallen Fellowship members, their reunion happens in the most unlikely place. In this British comedy-drama, their shared scenes are short; you’d be forgiven for missing them. But for Lord of the Rings fans, it’s a blink and you miss it moment of pure movie magic.

Bryce Dallas Howard may be known for her roles in three Jurassic Worldmovies and the 2011 film The Help, but in 2004, she starred alongside a future Oscar winner in M. Night Shyamalan’s The Village. In the movie, Howard plays Ivy Walker, the visually impaired daughter of Elder Edward Walker (William Hurt) in the mystery-thriller that comes complete with Shyamalan’s signature twists and turns.
Howard’s Ivy character was the love interest of Lucius Hunt, played by Joker’sJoaquin Phoenix. Phoenix would go on to win an Academy Award for his portrayal of the DC villain in 2019’s Joker. Howard, who is now starring in the Prime Video film Deep Cover, is now revealing that she had a huge crush on Phoenix when she was a child.

Last week, Prime Video dropped a nifty little action comedy flick called Deep Cover. Directed by Tom Kingsley, who directed an impressive indie comedy several years back called Black Pond, and is best known for his work on the hit comedy series Ghosts (the UK version), the movie stars Bryce Dallas Howard, Orlando Bloom and Ted Lasso breakout Nick Mohammed as failing improv actors who are recruited by the police to execute drug buys. Of course, as in any movie where someone goes undercover, they get “in too deep” and have to contend with some bad guys, who are led by none other than Ian McShane. Plus, Sean Bean is in it! How’s that for a cast!
Our man Alex Maidy gave this one a solid review, calling it a “quick watch and one that you will not forget”, with him also raving about Orlando Bloom’s comic performance,...

There are hundreds of captivating movies streaming on Prime Video right now, but one of the more recent additions to the platform has surpassed two major stars on streaming charts. Deep Cover is the latest original movie from Prime Video. After earning a strong 93% score from critics on Rotten Tomatoes and a 79% on the audience-driven Popcornmeter, the film has landed in the #3 spot on Prime Video's top 10 list, behind only The Accountant 2 and The Better Sister. To reach the third spot, Deep Cover had to pass Jason Statham’s The Beekeeper, which has been a streaming phenomenon for over a year, and Tom Cruise’s Oblivion, which has been revived on the streamer thanks to the release of his latest Mission: Impossible movie. It’s also ahead of White Chicks, the 2004 cult classic starring Terry Crews.

A new Prime Video action movie has quickly climbed the streaming charts, just days after premiering. Incorporating original and Amazon MGM Studios content, among other movies and TV shows, Prime Video houses many popular releases, including Red, White, & Royal Blue and Totally Killer. The streaming service has also adapted various Tom Clancy novels and characters in Without Remorse and Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan. Another successful Prime series is Reacher, starring Alan Ritchson, which has been praised by audiences for its stunt work and fight sequences.
Prime Video continues releasing action-heavy movies, most of which perform well statistically and feature recognizable actors. The Tomorrow War, following Dan Forester (portrayed by Chris Pratt) as he fights a futuristic battle, set viewership records in 2021 and led to sequel development. Since then, Prime has launched a highly successful Road House remake, as well as Canary Black and the Viola Davis action thriller G20.

Colin Trevorrow has his eye on the next generation of filmmakers.
After shepherding his Jurassic World trilogy to the box-office tune of nearly $4 billion worldwide, the filmmaker turned his attention to his production banner, Metronome Film Company. Trevorrow’s mission is to create opportunities for up-and-coming filmmakers in the same way that Steven Spielberg once did for him on 2015’s Jurassic World.
“Because I’ve had some success in my career, my absolute top priority is not just paying it forward, but also being able to introduce new talent to move us forward,” Trevorrow tells The Hollywood Reporter. “We don’t have farm teams in Hollywood, and I think that it’s a responsibility of filmmakers to identify who’s next. A lot of these icons that we have now were identified by another filmmaker, and that’s something I would love to have on my record.”

At first glance, you wouldn't think that a movie about a bunch of improv actors becoming police informants would strike a chord with so many people, but that's just what Prime Video's latest, Deep Cover, has done. Premiering yesterday, June 12, the British action comedy directed by Tom Kingsley has landed a stellar 92% rating from critics on Rotten Tomatoes, and fans are equally impressed with the new film, as they've rated it 82% on the Popcornmeter.
"Deep Cover is exactly the type of twist-filled action comedy with gags, guns, and gangsters that will delight fans who enjoy movies that have the madcap spirit of Guy Ritchie's early films," said Carla Hay from Culture Mix in her review.

Although her last film, Argylle, failed to catch on with audiences, that hasn't slowed Bryce Dallas Howard down at all. Her action-packed new improv comedy feature, Deep Cover, pairing her with Orlando Bloom and Nick Mohammed, among others, released on Prime Video on Thursday and immediately killed it with critics and audiences. The film debuted with a perfect Rotten Tomatoes score and, heading into its second day on the platform, has kept viewers engaged with a strong 92% Tomatometer rating and an 82% audience score so far. Compared to Argylle's 33% critics' score and 70% audience score, it's a big bounceback for Howard, giving her and her co-stars a chance to flex both their comedic and action chops to hilarious lengths.

Deep Cover Review: Bryce Dallas Howard and Orlando Bloom improvise a surprisingly good action-comedy
Plot: Kat, an improv comedy teacher, is questioning if she’s missed her shot at success. When an undercover cop offers her the role of a lifetime, she recruits two of her students to infiltrate London’s gangland by impersonating dangerous criminals.
Review: Count me as surprised, but Deep Cover is very funny. With the trailer dropping just a month ago, the Prime Video exclusive debuted on the streaming service today. Starring a pretty solid cast including Bryce Dallas Howard, Orlando Bloom, and Ted Lasso’s Nick Mohammed, Deep Cover looked like the type of forgettable vehicle that often gets relegated to a digital premiere these days. Nevertheless, the film, co-written by Jurassic World‘s Colin Trevorrow and Derek Connolly, is a hilarious comedy full of violence, profanity, and engaging characters. Clocking in at just over ninety minutes, Deep Cover is counterprogramming used to complement summer box office tentpoles. Luckily,...

Tom Kingsley’s “Deep Cover” (2025) is an energetic, self-aware, and unabashedly rollicking time at the movies. As gleefully ridiculous as it is, a vibrant blast of disguise, the film employs performativity in a congruent relationship with undercover police work. Both are established as being in sync, buoyed by an ability to put on acts that can knock down targets and villains. What is fundamentally needed is pure conviction, one that allows others to believe in your projection and fall for traps. Kingsley orchestrates it with giddy delight. There’s an innocence with which the film unravels, bringing charm and thrill alike.
The emphasis isn’t so much on heightened tension and escalating stakes as it is on the anticipation of the impersonation successfully working. It enormously helps the ensemble is terrific and game, bringing bite and sass. Every actor brings a lively energy, a bundle of amiable nerves which keeps the film steadily afloat.

Tom Kingsley’s Deep Cover doesn’t really bring anything new to the table if we talk about the basic storyline and the plot points, but it is the performances of the actors that make it an entertaining watch. Bryce Dallas Howard, Orlando Bloom, Nick Mohammed, and Paddy Considine were able to create moments of genuine laughter, and they made sure that the audience didn’t lose interest or get bored. That said, let’s find out what happened in the film and how an improv artist, an actor, and a corporate employee became undercover agents.

Filmmaker Colin Trevorrow is not prone to quoting his own movies in conversation, but when he sat down with IndieWire for late morning coffee earlier this week in New York City, one of his own lines seemed pretty apt to the interview at hand.
“There’s a line in the third ‘Jurassic’ movie, this little speech that Jeff Goldblum gives where he’s like, ‘They give you a lot of promotions very quickly and they don’t think that you’re going to look around and notice that they’re exploiting your fascination with these,’ and he holds up a little dinosaur,” Trevorrow said. “That whole thing was about this idea that our love for the things that we grew up on — cinema in general and specifically those franchises — run so deep that, in some ways, I don’t want to say you could be taken advantage of, because I appreciate [my opportunities] deeply,...

It’s entertaining, though I think some of the cast understand comedy better and more instinctively than others. It’s set in London (though Trevorrow might originally have imagined it set in LA or New York) and the credit is shared with his longtime writing partner Derek Connolly, and also with Ben Ashenden and Alexander Owen, the funny British double act known as the Pin, who also amusingly appear as two squabbling coppers with a Mitchell and Webb energy.

Deep Cover represents a sort of shot at redemption for star Bryce Dallas Howard. After starring in 2024’s abysmal spy comedy Argylle, she takes the lead in the Tom Kingsley-directed action comedy. And in a positive swing, Deep Cover is a much bigger success.
Deep Cover Plot
Howard plays Kat, a struggling actor working in London as an improv teacher. She is recruited by the local police to go undercover for small-time sting operations. Needing a team — scene partners, if you will — she brings in two of her students, Marlon (Orlando Bloom) and Hugh (Nick Mohammed).

But in their first sting, the trio “yes, ands” their way to a much deeper part of the London criminal underworld. Their handler, played by Sean Bean, insists they keep up the ruse in an effort to take down some of the city’s biggest players.

Tom Kingsley’s “Deep Cover” (2025) offers Bryce Dallas Howard something that Matthew Vaughn’s “Argylle” couldn’t: an investigative thriller plot that actually makes sense. Kingsley’s film has such a watertight script that no moment feels dull or dragged. It knows how to use every character without resorting to convoluted twists for the sake of cheap thrills. It also understands the strengths of its central cast to make the most of their skills. Take Nick Mohammed, for example. He is one of the breakout stars of “Ted Lasso,” who portrayed Nathan Shelly as an eternally petrified but well-meaning man, whose vulnerability ends up being his strength.
Kingsley’s film casts Mohammed in a fairly similar role, who is tired of being treated like garbage and feeling like a lost cause. It also casts Howard in a role that makes use of her casual liveliness, which helps underline her character’s internal pathos.

The premise of Deep Cover is almost funny enough to carry the entire film: A trio of improv actors is recruited by the London police to go undercover on a low-level sting operation, on the theory that they can think on their feet. Fortunately, this comedy is more than its plot thanks to the hilariously straight-faced performances of Bryce Dallas Howard, Orlando Bloom and Nick Mohammed as the hapless actors who wind up embedded with dangerous London gangsters. The film approaches its action tropes with an effective sense of absurdity, but it’s the stars’ kinetic commitment to the bit that makes this relentlessly silly film work.
Howard brings energy and conviction to her role as Kat, an American in London whose visa has almost run out, along with her luck as an actor. Now she teaches improv classes to play the bills, and faces the pitying looks of her old friends.

Movies about characters who believe in the philosophy that you can fake it till you make it are a dime a dozen. For example, there’s Joel Coen’s The Hudsucker Proxy, which is about a low-level clerk who becomes the CEO of a manufacturing company because its board of directors wants to tank its stocks, but he ends up making the establishment a huge success. Chandra Barot’s Don has a street musician named Vijay who is hired by Dsp D’Silva, because he looks exactly like the titular gangster, to infiltrate Don’s gang. But when D’Silva dies, Vijay has to find a way to prove he isn’t the real deal.

Amazon Studios' Deep Cover film follows three characters in a comedy-thriller that sees them evolve thanks to the classic art of Improv. The movie follows Bryce Dallas Howard (Kat), Nick Mohammed (Hugh), and Orlando Bloom (Marlon)—two improv actors and one wannabe improv performer—who are given the opportunity to utilize their acting skills to go undercover for the police.
Deep Cover stars Bryce Dallas Howard (Kat), Nick Mohammed (Hugh), and Orlando Bloom (Marlon) sat down with The Direct's Russ Milheim to discuss their latest film, and how each of their characters finds their voices and confidence through the act of Improv. Deep Cover, directed by Tom Kingsley, starts streaming on Amazon's Prime Video on June 12, 2025.
Mohammed teased that his character might "Possibly [have] the biggest journey of the three in terms of his confidence," while Howard noted that her character figures out that her improv teacher skills might be "kind of her superpower.

There’s an ingenious thought at the centre of Deep Cover: if undercover work is, effectively, Method acting, what would happen if you put an improv group — whose very instinct is to 'yes, and' a situation — into minor sting operations? Tom Kingsley's comedy feature not only commits conceptually to that idea — it does so structurally, too, barrelling forward as it throws our heroes into situations of increasing danger and absurdity.
That initial idea came from Colin Trevorrow (Jurassic World) and his writing partner Derek Connolly; their screenplay was retooled by British comedy duo The Pin — aka Ben Ashenden and Alexander Owen, briefly seen in Jurassic World Dominion — and relocated to London. The joyous absurdity of the duo's lockdown sketch videos is largely intact here, as Deep Cover both leans into tropes and subverts them to pull off sizeable laughs.
Deep Cover is well constructed, committing to the bit in the gag department.

We exist in the quiet desperation of the roles we are given, and sometimes, in the roles we invent to escape. Deep Cover begins here, in this space of profound want. We meet three souls adrift in the London fog of their own perceived failures: Kat (Bryce Dallas Howard), an improv teacher whose own life feels static; Marlon (Orlando Bloom), an actor shackled to the ghost of a pizza advertisement, yearning for the gravitas of a new skin; and Hugh (Nick Mohammed), a man so lost in the digital architecture of his It job that human connection is a foreign script.
They are a congregation of the unfulfilled. Into this void steps a grizzled authority figure, Billings (Sean Bean), with a proposition that is both absurd and seductive: to use the art of invention to infiltrate the underworld. He asks them not just to act, but to become. The central...

“Deep Cover” opens on a quote — the adage that in comedy, as in battle, you must be prepared to die if you want to kill — that is low-hanging fruit for any snarky critics seeking an easy jab. In truth, however, this knockabout action farce neither dies nor kills, even as its onscreen body count ramps up: It just chugs along enthusiastically for 99 minutes, throwing about a lot of slapstick and a lot of quips, but only intermittently landing an outright laugh. Starring Bryce Dallas Howard, Orlando Bloom and Nick Mohammed as desperate improv comics improbably snared up in the London underworld, it’s busier than it is funny, more frenetic than dynamic, but watchable enough.
For producer and co-writer Colin Trevorrow, “Deep Cover” marks a return to the scrappier genre comedy of his breakthrough “Safety Not Guaranteed” after years on the big-budget franchise beat. His original screenplay, written with longtime collaborator Derek Connolly,...

Bryce Dallas Howard, Orlando Bloom and Nick Mohammed brought their crime-comedy caper “Deep Cover” to life through genuine friendship and collaborative improvisation, the trio revealed during a post-screening Q&a following the film’s world premiere as the Centrepiece Headliner at SXSW London on Wednesday night.
The action-comedy, directed by “Stath Lets Flats” helmer Tom Kingsley and produced by Colin Trevorrow via his Metronome Film Co., follows three improv actors recruited by an undercover cop to infiltrate London’s criminal underworld by impersonating dangerous gangsters.
“Deep Cover” had its world premiere as the inaugural SXSW London Screen Festival’s Centrepiece Headliner, with the film set to stream on Prime Video starting June 12.
Trevorrow revealed the project’s unusual genesis, explaining that the concept began in 2010 when he and co-writer Derek Connolly heard about New York City police using actors as decoys. The film is based on an original script by “Jurassic World” collaborators Connolly and Trevorrow,...

The Tribeca Film Festival is all about the music.
Three years ago, Taylor Swift brought her directorial debut short “All Too Well” and revealed her desire to continue working in film. This time, it’s Miley Cyrus who moves behind the camera with “Something Beautiful,” which is being billed as a “one-of-a-kind pop opera.”
“We’re all about showcasing new ways for people to express themselves and differentiate themselves and explore whatever new forms of storytelling are speaking to them,” says Jane Rosenthal, co-founder of Tribeca.
This year’s festival isn’t just about the pop culture icons — though it will premiere new documentaries on Metallica, De La Soul and Billy Joel. Tribeca’s nonfiction lineup also includes intimate looks at news legends, sushi masters and even a giant manta ray named “Willy Wow.”
Then there are films that put a meta-twist on things by having real-life fathers and daughters...

Nicola Walker and Jemaine Clement are set to headline Disney+’s upcoming British comedy series Alice & Steve, a fresh entry in the streamer’s bid to bolster its UK Originals slate. Created and penned by Sara Goodhart and directed by Tom Kingsley, the six-episode show follows lifelong friends whose bond unravels when Steve begins a romance with Alice’s daughter.
Walker, best known for her award-winning turns in Spooks, Unforgotten and The Split, takes on the role of Alice, a straight-talking matriarch whose world is upended by her friend’s unexpected affair with her teenage child. Clement, the New Zealand-born comedian and musician famed for Flight of the Conchords and films like Men in Black 3 and Avatar: The Way of Water, brings his trademark deadpan charm to Steve, a free-spirited bachelor confronting middle-age disillusionment.

Nicola Walker (The Split) and Jemaine Clement (What We Do in the Shadows) will lead a new, six-part Disney+ original series, Alice and Steve (working title).
From the award-winning Clerkenwell Films (Baby Reindeer), Alice and Steve follows lifelong best friends who see their world implode when the middle-aged Steve starts dating Alice’s 26-year-old daughter, Izzy (Yali Topol Margalith). “Although both are no strangers to chaos and dubious decision-making, their once rock-solid friendship is turned upside down and tested to its limits — threatening their families, futures and everything in between,” a plot synopsis reads.
Joel Fry (Cruella) also stars as Alice’s husband Daniel, with Tyrese Eaton-Dyce (Sherwood) cast as her son Dom and Olivier-award-winning Marcia Warren (The Crown) starring as Alice’s mother, Val. Rounding out the cast are Eilidh Fisher (Dope Girls) and Ebony Aboagye. Filming has commenced in London.

Bryce Dallas Howard has long been famed for all the star-studded portrayals she has given over the past more than three and a half decades that she has been active as an actress, mostly in the adventure, sci-fi, and thriller genres. After giving praiseworthy performances across numerous different genres, she now seems to be all set to enter the criminal field as well.
According to the latest reports, for her upcoming project, Howard is expected to go undercover in Amazon’s next crime-comedy, Deep Cover. But this, of course, will be nothing short of a new role for her, as Dallas Howard is no Bryan Cranston’s Robert Mazur, the character the respective actor played in his 2016 biographical masterpiece that trekked along similar lines.
